Abstract
- It is proposed that the coincidence of higher brightness and upward electric current observed by Janvier et al. during a flare indicates electron acceleration by field-parallel potential drops sustained by extremely strong field-aligned currents of order 104 A m−2. A few consequences are discussed here. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
